I have a 2012 Cruze LT. I want to replace the stock exhaust with something beefier sounding. Can I do this with Just a weld on after market exhaust like magnaflow muffler? Found a magnaflow for like 80 bucks. Will this exhaust make a very noticeable difference in the sound. I dont want to throw away $80 if the sound is like a weed eater. Or do I have to have a complete exhaust system installed from the engine all the way to the muffler? Thinks for any input!

If all you want is sound with no money just cut the resonator out.

Replacing the muffler will make a difference yes but, it will never sound like a sbc. The only exhaust that had a little rasp to it the guy had a catless down pipe and mid pipe with an aftermarket muffler. The stock exhaust flows fairly well already though. Go on YouTube and look up all the flowmaster and borla exhausts.

Ok thanks for the reply. But educate me on that. I wouldn't even know where to start. If I just cut out the resonator what kind of tone would I have. This is just a stock everything LT. If I will get a better sound with a weld on magnaflow ill just do that. If not ill chop off the resonator. What do u think?
